My Journey With Mindfulness + Energy Work
A Quick Note Before You Explore
I share recommendations the way I’d send them to a friend, with the real-life context that helps me decide whether something is genuinely worth our family’s time, money, and energy. I pay attention to the full experience, including how families are treated and how easy the day feels to navigate.
Everything here is intentionally curated. I don’t do public takedowns or share something simply because I was invited. If I don’t feel good about recommending it to another family, I simply don’t share it.
My Journey With Mindfulness + Energy Work
I’m not naturally calm, my brain is rarely quiet, and I live in a house with four kids. Mindfulness, meditation, and Reiki did not magically turn me into someone who floats peacefully through every day. My house is still loud, my thoughts still have thoughts, and someone almost always needs a snack.
Mindfulness helped me notice when I was moving too quickly to hear myself. Meditation gave me a practice for pausing and returning to the present. Reiki opened me to a deeper awareness of energy, including what I carry, what leaves me feeling depleted, and what can shift when I slow down and listen.
These practices have changed the way I understand myself and the way I move through motherhood. They have helped me become more aware of what I need, the energy I bring into a space, and how I can create more connection without needing everything around me to be perfectly calm first.
